Huge congrats to Adrian from Olympia! While he didn’t actually win an oyster dinner, he did win a really beautiful oyster knife and can now enjoy his bivalves with class and style. Adrian, your new lucky number is 118… that was your assigned number that we drew out of the hat (aka selected via random […]

Kimberly Schlapman loves ersters! She and her band Little Big Town (which just yesterday was nominated for a Grammy!) are touring in the PNW and today Kimberly visited our farm to film an episode for her GAC cooking show Simply Southern. The weather, the bald eagles, and the seals all cooperated, and after the shoot […]

We can’t believe it either! Such a sneaky holiday. That means our retail store will be closed Thursday so that we can all get some family time. Give us a call if this seriously cramps your style and we’ll see if we can work something out (maybe stay open a little bit later on Wednesday, […]

This week we received the thank you card and box of Samoa cookies. Robbinswold is a beautiful, 400+ acre camp north of […]

Here’s a sample: And on an even more unrelated note: Dosewallips turns out to be a surprisingly popular name for dogs. (We’ve heard of at least three […]

Today our friend Preston stopped by with some wild morel and porcini mushrooms he’d recently picked somewhere east of the Cascade Mountains. Preston– who probably knows all of the Olympic Peninsula’s sweet spots for both wild mushrooms and good surf– runs a local gourmet food supply company called Wild West. He stops by once a […]
